BCA Green Mark 2021: Carbon Calculator

This document provides information on using a carbon calculator tool to estimate the upfront carbon emissions of construction projects based on declared materials. It notes that the calculator is in line with international standards and contains locked cells for background calculations, while users input details in blue cells. Materials are categorized in sections for concrete, glass, steel, and others; users enter quantities which are used to compute total carbon emissions. Important notes remind that this only provides estimates and to refer to technical guides for more information.

Carbon Calculator

History of amendments
S/N Version No. Remarks/Bried Description of changes Effective Date
1 Carbon Calculator Beta Version 2.0 for Launch (R1) 1-Nov-21
Introduction
This Excel based carbon calculator is used as a tool to calculate the estimated total upfront carbon emissions of the project based on materials declared.

General Notes

The cells with formulas or baseline figures for background calculations are locked from editing. Users are not to attempt to unlock and/or to overwrite the locked cells.

Users are to input details and figures, or choose the options from a drop-down list only in the blue cells.

If there are scenarios where there is neccessity to insert additional rows in the locked sheets, please request from the project's Green Mark assessors for assistance.

If there is a need to "copy - paste" from another source, please paste as text (Paste Special function) to avoid the cells from being locked.

Sheet Tab - Computation


The excel has been categorised in to different sections for ease of computation.
Cells in dark blue are header sections. Each header sections has sub-headers for various construction materials. Please expand using the '+' icon located at the left side
of the excel under each sub-header to show the material list.

Users may also expand the "Self Inputs" header to enter their own factors for computation.

Please indicate quantity in kg as the default unit of measurement.

Important Note: This calculator only gives estimated carbon emissions.


This calculator tool is in line with internaltional guidelines BS EN 15978 and BS EN 15804.
Please refer to technical guide & self help guide for more information.
